Green 4 Co.,. in tnejr report on cotton flu
lures, say: "TradIng was of q loca charac-
ter throughout, aud The market was with Jut
really any feature, operators feeling too
timd and perpeXed to take any active
measures. Low prices prevent selling, and
the full crop movement holds in check the
demand. Under weaker Liverpool 5IG6 points
were lost mere to cOumenCe with. when d lit
tie covering brought partial reaction. but
heavy receipts at interior towns afterward
checked the demand, and the close was slow
at 1904 points under Saturday, though with
out much pressure apparent"
